it looks like a configuration bug in the woody apache packages :(
in /etc/apache/httpd.conf, you'll have a section like the following:
<IfModule mod_mime_magic.c>
MIMEMagicFile share/magic
</IfModule>
having just tried to do so here, it seems you can't just point this at
the "normal" magic file (/usr/share/misc/magic in woody) - since that
uses some fancy syntax features that mod_mime_magic doesn't like.
iirc, there used to be a special "apache friendly" magic file sitting
in /etc/apache/magic. its probably moved/gone/a bug :(
you most likely don't need mod_mime_magic anyway, so you can just
comment out the "LoadModule mod_mime_magic" line to disable it (it
won't be working at the moment anyway).
